I love it how Republicans think home-bound liberals were smart enough, and clever enough, and coordinated enough — to cook up a ‘conspiracy of election fraud’, that could give Joe Biden and Kamala Harris a LANDSLIDE WIN in 2020. (Only Q is that out-of-the-box “creative”… as far as I know.)
I’ve got two words for that kind of “magical thinking” ….
AS IF.
As-if Dems can magically stuff ballot boxes nationwide with a blizzard of ballots — each uniquely identified AND CERTIFIED, by the local Election Officials who counted them — AS LEGIT.
As-if Dems can magically motivate the typical non-voter to turn out, for yet another “most important election of their lifetime” — all by our lonesome.
As-if Dems can magically flip votes from Red to Blue — in a thousand different systems — all by the flip of a SINGLE SWITCH, in some “all powerful” secret Dominion laptop, from Hunter Biden’s basement.
No way. No how. No kidding. … As Joe would say: “It’s time to get-real, America.”
There is only one thing that could have motivated such massive swings in Electoral College results — flipping the nation from “hopelessness and insanity,” to RATIONALITY AND HOPE — and COMPASSION … for the good of the nation.
And that is the respective Candidates, and their visions and versions of America, they were selling to the American People, all through-out 2020.
AND the American People responded accordingly, in RECORD TURN OUTS … Period.
There was nothing “conspiratorial” about it. Unless you want to count the “conspiracy” of the Majority of the America People wanting to return the country to sanity, hope and normalcy — SO MUCH SO, that they turned out en-masse, and ACTUALLY VOTED to affect such a change.
THE ONLY CONSPIRACY was HOW so many individual Americans stood up and said in unison:
ENOUGH already.
Enough with TRUMP and Trumpism.
Enough with GOP lunacy and selfishness.
Enough with putting the average person LAST, in any plan to help the nation grow and prosper.
ENOUGH already. GOP you had your “bold and brash” experiment: It FAILED. Big time.
The sooner you quit courting that FAILURE — the sooner you “might” recapture some of those demographic trendlines — that you have been losing in droves, for years.
Americans have seen what a progressive future will really look like — and WE WANT MORE.
Americans — the vast majority of us anyways — have seen what the GOP is selling, and have decided to take a pass. No thank you. We’ll take what the Dems are having, thank you very much.
The GOP can “conspire” all they want to make their Biggest Loser LEGIT. But guess what — It ain’t going to happen. Trump LOST. The GOP LOST. Hate and cruelty LOST. And no repetition of their pathetic LIES will ever erase these 2020 Demographic Facts.
Only apathy and disengagement — and ongoing voter suppression — has the power to do that, the power to alter Election turn-outs of the future. THAT is the GOP “Conspiracy” that is well on its way towards accomplishing its future Election-Rewrite mission.
Much to the determent to an actual People-driven democracy — once the envy of the world. We shall see which of these “competing” trendlines, actually will win the future.
For now, Dems need to win the day. And make the most of this brief respite of sanity that the American People, in their ‘collective wisdom’, have granted us. For now.
IF ONLY.
IF ONLY we will remain so collective-wise in the future … which is being written as we speak. And cogitate; and organize; and envision “this unique Opportunity” — to make American lives better.
IF ONLY we perceive exactly where “WE — the country” is currently at … and run with it — to demonstrate to The Voters, how Voting for the Democratic Party DOES make ALL the difference in the world.
IF so, the Majority of Americans will once again, voice in unison: “MORE PLEASE … We want what Dems are having. Thank you very much.”
Seize the day, it’s all we ever really got. Strike while the Electorate is hot.

Such is what any Future Wins … will be made.
Repeat that, … speaking of how ‘repetition makes stuff real’ ...
Good day, and good fortune for all; as many as humanly possible anyways, given the current “bi-partisan constraints.”
Peace out. Til next time.
